Running VMware ESX Server

Installing New Software Inside the Virtual Machine
Installing new software in an ESX Server virtual machine is just like installing it on a
regular computer.
If you are using physical media, you need to have access to the ESX Server computer
to insert installation CD-ROM discs or floppy disks into the server’s drives.
You may use image files in place of physical floppy disks and CD-ROM discs. To
connect the virtual drive to a floppy or ISO image, use the Devices menu and edit the
settings for the drive you want to change.
The following steps are based on using a Windows guest operating system and
physical media. If you are using a Linux guest operating system — or if you are using
ISO or floppy image files — some details are different.
1. Be sure you have started the virtual machine and, if necessary, logged on. Check
the Devices menu to be sure the virtual machine has access to the CD-ROM and
floppy drives.
2. Insert the installation CD-ROM or floppy disk into the proper drive. If you are
installing from a CD-ROM, the installation program may start automatically.
3. If the installation program does not start automatically, click the Windows Start
button, go to Settings > Control Panel, then double-click Add/Remove
Programs and click Add New Programs. Follow the instructions on screen and
in the user manual for your new software.
Cutting, Copying and Pasting
Be sure you have installed and started VMware Tools in your virtual machine.
In a Windows guest operating system, you see a VMware Tools icon in the system tray
when VMware Tools is running.
When VMware Tools is running, you can copy and paste text between applications in
the virtual machine and on your management workstation or between two virtual
machines. Use the normal hot keys or menu choices to cut, copy and paste.
